The SER fires Javier Ruiz at the start of the new season after taking over the direction of La Séptima

The Spanish radio station Cadena SER has dismissed journalist Javier Ruiz at the start of the new season, following his acceptance of a position at the new television channel La Séptima. The dismissal was presented as a mutual agreement, though sources suggest ideological motivations, citing the departure of other journalists with progressive views. Ruiz, known for his progressive stance, had been leading the program 'Hora 25 de los Negocios' and was set to take over the direction of La Séptima. His exit follows similar departures of other journalists associated with progressive viewpoints, leading some to describe Cadena SER as shifting towards a more moderate, leftist orientation. Ruiz expressed his appreciation for the station, while Prisa Media acknowledged his contributions. The station did not respond to inquiries from infoLibre.

Unusual joint statement by Javier Ruiz and Cadena SER after his controversial departure: agreement reached to "dissolve" his contract

The article reports on an unusual joint statement issued by Javier Ruiz and the Cadena SER following his controversial departure. The statement announces that an agreement has been reached to 'terminate' his contract. The situation appears to involve some level of public controversy surrounding Ruiz's exit from the station.

Bias read (Center): The article presents the situation factually without overtly favoring any particular side. It focuses on the announcement of a contractual termination rather than taking a stance on the controversy itself. There is no clear ideological leaning in the framing of the event.
